Hello,
Last week I bought Mirage 5BA Blue Thunder version by Revell. I Wonder if someone Here knows about colors to paint this one? Revell gives instructions for mixing Revell enamels which is...well...kind of difficult to me.

Hello,
I wasn't able to do any progress photos but I hope I'll restart my Widow build next week. I'm waiting for masks for "Blyskawica" - I hope I'll get them this week. I'm finishing P-400 and then I'll get back to P-61.

As I wrote in WIP...
I bought very old Revell F-104 and after buying I started to think what I've done and what to do with it
In grim and cold night I hit upon an idea - not black but white eagle, nod yellow but red plane - polish whiff
I've ordered masks for eagle, seat from Aires, Pitot's tube from Master. Side panels in cockpit were scratchbuild ,exhaust had to de detailed and here it is. Polish F-104 in occasional scheme
Painted with Mr.Hobby range.
Many thanks to my friend Bogdan Zolnierowicz for masks !

I can't promise frequent and fast updates 'cause I have few different models underway but as I said - I'm in
This will be almost real-world build - or as you wish - very close to what-if There are two photos (that I know about) of P-61B with polish pilot.
P-61B-10-NO, c/n:1173, 42-39654
Since 31.12.1946 in 425th NFS, but from 25.08.1947 r. in 317th NFS. From 07.01.1948 renamed for F-61B-10-NO. At the end of it's service was used by Tobin Aerial Mapping Company to creating aerial maps in San Antonio, Texas. Plane was emover from service on 14.07.1949 r.
Data from Northrop's Night Hunter P-61 Black Widow, Jeff Kolln, Specialty Press 2009.
So why almost what-if? Because I can't force myself to remove this beautiful turret with Brownings from Master
But to be honest, are there any proofs that this plane with this markings never had turret? Never ever? Maybe "Blyskawica II" had it's turret a day before these photos were made ? I'll stick with this doubt and turret will be there , period

Hello!
I hope everybody had a great Christmas time
I've managed to do a base painting of F-104 (I forgot how long is that model and how much I hate painting with white :)). Anyway, it is now almost ready to put first masks but I'd like to wait until I'll be sure that gloss cote is solid. I tried to make a hinge for canopy. I did it (surprise,surprise) but not as it should be. At least I can see insrument panel With canopy closed it would be impossible.

Hello!
Next stop - exhaust. As simple as it can be. I've made back end plate with imitation of turbine blades. Inner nozzle is a 1/35 Humvee tire sanded to diameter
Cockpit side panels. Throttle stick broken. I have to add it after mounting instrument panel:

Hello,
I'm a big fan of Robert Kubica - polish F1 driver. Now Robert is a driver in Williams but when I started this model and bought decals it wasn't clear. There were rumors that he can be simulator driver in Ferrari with possibility of contract next year. I've decided to give him next-gen Ferrari F1 sooner
So...here it is. Robert (I've tried to modify Hasegawa figure) , team chief and of course grid girl And next-gen six-wheeled Ferrari with twin turbos
Decals were bought on ebay, two additional with name of the driver were custom printed.
Model is Super Asurada Double One from Aoshima. It was a pleasure working with this set.
